Bowser and Robotnik working together. Closer and closer to a real crossover game. Why can't they just make a RPG with the two franchises already? Bring on the Mario and Luigi team or Paper Mario team and keep Bioware away!

so I just picked up my copy for the 3DS today and I'm pretty dissapointed. Like, you can't pick anymore the character you want for the events, they force you to use any of a 4 member pre-made team for the events, like for example, in the 100m run event you'll either have to pick between Mario, Luigi, Sonic or Tails, they won't let you use any other character aside of that. Sure, there are more events than in the Wii version but I'm pretty dissapointed that they removed that option. I haven't played the story mode yet, just watched the intro, and all I can say is that Bowser and Eggman are pissed off because they haven't been invited to the Olympics this year, therefore Eggman made a machine that creates fog and it's sent around London to prevent the Olympics being held.
I'm returning this game tomorrow. I don't wanna play a game where I'm forced to play with characters that I don't even use.
